Just to update: He is eating egg yolk. I took some Metroplex and mashed it into the yolk of a hard boiled egg. I'm very excited. He's getting some nutrition and some medication.

It's interesting you mentioned that medicine for external issues is used on the throat. The Polyguard, an external medicine, I gave him seemed to help him a little. On Monday, when I gave him a small flake and he only spat out a portion from what I could tell. It was much to begin with. I...
